“The opposition and ignorance is merely an indication of why it was not time to share for the past thirty years. This is also the reason why God allows tribulation to crush them.

Just as there are no atheists in foxholes, people need tribulation to drive them to the point of despair.”

It was about 30 years ago the Lord gave me a vision to leave an Assembly of God church when it decided to go “mega.” The Lord has shown me more than once that there would be a separation. We would either harden further into religion, or be moldable and flowing with the Holy Spirit. It’s clearly been happening the last few years. Like clay, we can be hardened where we are, or move with him. A lot of hardened hearts in the world since the election and defacto civil war.

One actual encounter with Jesus can dramatically change how one understands theology. Prayers for all the people that need to KNOW Him.

Exactly...

There are various levels of understanding of the same scripture.

The reason for the religion and the scriptures is to guide us through the experience of God and Jesus. Religion is much like high school is to the experiences of life. It prepares you, but it is NOT a replacement for the actual experience life, i.e. of God’s Love.

People are stuck arguing the textbook, and never have the experience.
